Aaaah... That is fantastic news.
Allow some treats...I was pht on such strict control when I was diagnosed.. And mum ckearing out my cupboards it made me feel so different to everyone else. In those days I was told the only biscuits I could have was divestives ( after a hypo and 1 before bed) or 2 rich tea..
Now with progress I know I can eat same as everynody else, providing I have the insulin. HOWEVER, I was given such limitations initially that it has stayed with me.. So my diet is pretty plain.. Chicken and 5 or 6 veg with a yogurt for dinner.. But if I want a treat I will.
He just needs to know how to get D to live with him at a balanced level... Its not easy for anyone.. Patient or parent or siblings or friends.
I would give yourself and son a big slap on your back and really be proud of yourselves... I know my earlier posting was quite plain speaking... Just well done.. Your son and your family will reap the rewards..
